Makes 6 to 8 servings
Ingredients
16 slices day-old, firm-textured white bread (1 small loaf)
1-3/4 cups milk
1 package (8 ounces) mixed dried fruit, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 medium apple, cored and chopped
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Slow Cooker Directions
Tear bread, with crusts, into 1- to 2-inch pieces. Place in slow cooker. Pour milk over bread; let soak 30 minutes. Stir in dried fruit, nuts and apple. Combine remaining ingredients in small bowl. Pour over bread mixture. Stir well to blend. Cover; cook on LOW 3-1/2 to 4 hours or until skewer inserted in center comes out clean.
Note Chopping dried fruits can be difficult. To make the job easier, cut the fruit with kitchen scissors. You can also spray your scissors or chef's knife with nonstick cooking spray before you begin chopping so that the fruit won't stick to the blade.
